When the host goes idle, the game should end.

I see it now. This game is obsolete and developed by people who live in fear of cheaters. The hosting and moderation system is horrible and broken. I don't think this game will receive any serious update. It will die eventually. I just found out that I can trade just 4 provincies per game, by the way. Horrible, just horrible!

There are other ways to prevent that, as for example good game moderation by the host.

```having manual removal lessens the chances of replacement cheaters```
True.
If only the host was active
I propose a system that rewards/punishes hosts according to how active in moderating the game are.
E.g. if the hosts logs in daily, it receives reputation +10. Host's reputation will be displayed at each game server.
This way players can see if the server is moderated or not.
If the host goes idle after 2 days, his reputation should decrease with 10 per idle day.
A complete game with an average of 70% of players being active, should reward the host with an additional days x 10 reputation.
A complete game with an average lower than 30% of players being active, should punish the host with an additional days x 10 reputation.

```And thus freeing a spot for wolfpacking, multis and other players that might want to cheat.```
This you can do anyway. So using it as a counter-argument is naive.

Ye, allow wounded units to regenerate at hospital. E.g. a unit has 25% chance to be wounded instead of killed in an attack. If the wounded unit is not put in a hospital within 4 hours, it will die.

Nothing wrong with whole continents traded between friends. I think limiting the trade options of a player is very dumb and self-righteous.

Why can I trade only one city at a time?!
I should be able to trade as many cities at the same time, as I please!

This system should be automatic!
>>Replace inactive player with AI in defensive position (will focus on building and guarding borders)
>>Clear the player from the game, freeing the spot for a new player to come and control his lands.
